To be part of such works in time and in a very specific day, we find an Italian artist Federico Pietrella.
Lives and works in Berlin, and for 16 years makes paintings not with the use of a simple brush but with a date stamp and ink.
Use the date of the day that begins the framework for drawing and overlapping of dates gives life to painting. If the painting is not done in one day, the next day Pietrella change date stamp and to continue the work.
"I started with painting - the artist says - and every time I was painting I used to put the date on the canvas. So at some point I just decided to use this data to create an entire portrait "Federico Pietrella
The subjects and the landscapes of the paintings are usually replicated from a photograph. The works of Italian, especially the method of how they are made, that is, using dates that change in the duration of the work, have much in common with the process of composition of my Encase Time, where I add day by day, with a principle of progression it started the day conceptual idea of the project to an infinite time.
However the real star of the works of Pietrella as in my Encase Time is the time, "this mysterious thing," says Pietrella "hence everything: life, work, one's being."
